Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Yang Yizhong caught up with Zhao Gou and arrived at Dingyuan County.Zhao Gou had a hasty breakfast at the Dingyuan County Yamen and was preparing to continue fleeing south.

Zhang Jun saw it and hurriedly stopped.Said: "The Jin people just made a lucky sneak attack, and they will definitely not last long in Haozhou. Your Majesty is stationed in Dingyuan for a while, why continue to go south?"

Zhao Gou stared at Zhang Jun and said coldly: "How ridiculous is it that the two armies were fighting and the enemy stole the camp? What if I live in Dingyuan and the Jin army comes again? What if I am really unfortunate enough to fall? Who should be blamed for the deposit?"

Seeing Zhao Gou's unkind expression, Zhang Jun had no choice but to lower his head and stop talking.

Lu Yihao said: "Your Majesty has a body of thousands of gold and there is no room for any mistakes. It is best to go to Luzhou first."

Yang Yizhong also said: "Luzhou is three hundred miles away, and the Jin people can't reach it even if they attack overnight. Your Majesty, you can be safe when you go to Luzhou!"

Zhao Gou's expression softened and he said: "My lords, please come with me to Luzhou. I'll leave it to Yang Tong to control the battles on the front line."

Zhang Jun sighed and said to Zhao Gou: "Your Majesty, I am still on the front line with Yang Tongzhi. If you cannot reoccupy Haozhou, you should resign your position to wait for truly capable people."

Zhao Gou knew that his attitude just now was a bit harsh, and this was the time to employ people.He said warmly to Zhang Jun: "My husband is staying on the front line, and you must be careful. The Jin Shuai on the opposite side is a sly man, a very vicious and cunning man, so be careful!"

Zhang Jun said: "I will die to repay Your Majesty, why should I care about anything else!"

Zhao Gou took Zhang Jun's hand, patted it gently, and said: "If things go wrong, my husband will retreat south in time. There is no need to fight the Jin army for a city or a place."

Zhang Jun's eyes were blurred with tears and he only thought of death.

Seeing Zhao Gou and the ministers mounting their horses, but no shadows could be seen, Zhang Jun said to Yang Yizhong: "Commander, if we can't recapture Haozhou this time, I won't have the face to see the Lord. The Jin army is powerful, so our army should What should I do?”

Yang Yizhong said: "The Jin army came south. I heard that Wushu had more than 3 people and Talan had more than 5 people. If we add the puppet Qi army, the number has exceeded our army. Now look at the direction of Hedong Road. Wang Xuanfu What to do after the victory? If we can move our troops eastward, the puppet Qi army will inevitably retreat, and the Jin people will not be able to stay long. By then, our army can naturally move our troops northward. How difficult is it to restore Haozhou?"

Zhang Jun's face turned ugly. After a while, he said: "Why did Wang Xuanfu fight against the Jin army and win consecutive battles? Even Nianhan's army of more than [-] people was completely annihilated in Taiyuan Mansion? On the other hand, even if we There are not many Jin troops in front of us, and they are restricted everywhere?"

Yang Yizhong said: "My lord, when it comes to war, some people are like divine help and are invincible. You can't envy this kind of thing."

Zhang Jun said: "It's not that I'm envious, but I always feel that Wang Xuanfu must have a special method. But for many years, we all know how Wang Xuanfu trains his troops and how to fight. Why can't he wait until we fight? "

Yang Yizhong remained silent and looked at the rising sun in the east.

In Taiyuan Mansion, Wang Xiaolie was sitting in the middle.Sitting around were Li Yanxian, Wang Ruohai, Niu Gao, Ma Kuo, Wang Yan and other headquarters personnel, as well as two West Route Army generals, Jiang Min and Zhang Jun.After the Battle of Taiyuan, Zhao Ding hurriedly went to report his merits. He had been away for a few days.Even Shaanxi's army has returned to Shaanxi.

Looking at the generals, Wang Xiaolie said: "It has been almost three months since the battle in Taiyuan Prefecture. Fortunately, we won a complete victory. Not only did we annihilate all the Jin army, but we also captured Nianhan and other Jin generals. . Now we can say that we have won a hearty victory!" After hearing this, the generals couldn't help but smile at each other.

Yes, this victory is no small matter.From then on, the Jin Army's field strength was completely at a disadvantage, and its total strength was far inferior to that of the Song Dynasty.Now Wang Xiaolie can say with certainty that as long as the Song Dynasty does not make mistakes, the Jin army has no chance of winning.No matter how well the Eastern Route Army fought, they could completely destroy the Jin Dynasty with their own strength alone.The end of the Jin Kingdom is not far away.

Seeing everyone rejoicing, Wang Xiaolie continued: "However, the two armies on the east route are still facing each other on both sides of the Huai River. The outcome is not yet known, and our support is still needed. I have ordered Xie Linong and Li Xing to go out to Xiangzhou and Cizhou, but Shangao Road It is dangerous, and they will have to walk on the road for a while. These two states are close to Daming Mansion. After the occupation, Liu Lin will definitely withdraw his troops from the Huaihe River, and it is unknown how many states he will give up."

Wang Ruohai said: "With the strength of Li Nong and Li Xing, it is not difficult to order them to occupy Daming Mansion."

Wang Xiaolie said: "The matter of the puppet Qi still depends on the attitude of the Jurchens. Nianhan was originally Liu Yu's backstage in the Jin Kingdom. Now that Nianhan is captured, it is hard to say how the Jin people will deal with Liu Yu. We It’s better to wait and see for a while in Xiangzhou or Cizhou.”

Wang Ruohai said: "Even if we don't attack, the puppet Qi will definitely attack."

Wang Xiaolie said: "Then let them attack. The two divisions Xie Linong and Li Xing, don't think you can't entertain them!"

Everyone laughed together.

Xie Linong and Li Xing rushed to Taiyuan from Shangdang, but they did not participate in the war at all. They were probably very dissatisfied.This time, they became the main force against the Puppet Qi, which could make up for the regret in Tai.

Wang Xiaolie said: "This time we occupied Yunzhong and the northern area and fought a battle with Xixia. Fortunately, Jiang Min commanded it well and won a complete victory. After this battle, that area still needs to be defended, otherwise Xixia would not Will you be willing? Jiang Min will take his original troops and garrison in Yunzhong to prevent Xixia from invading eastward. We will deal with the party members after we have dealt with the Jin Kingdom."

Jiang Min crossed her hands and said yes.

Jiang Min's army consisted of five infantry regiments, three cavalry regiments, two artillery regiments, two engineering regiments, and three baggage corps, totaling more than 5 people, which was far beyond what an ordinary division could compare with.Let them guard Datong and the north. Wang Xiaolie paid enough attention to Xixia.

Wang Xiaolie said: "In addition, Shi Rong, Cao Zhiyan and Zhai Cong's three divisions have already reached the north of Yanmen Pass after their respective victories. These three divisions first rested in Yuzhou and Fengshengzhou for two or three months to prepare. Cross the Taihang Mountains from Feihuxing and Junduxing, and encircle Youzhou with other troops!"

When they heard that they were going to attack Youzhou, the generals below became excited.After conquering Youzhou, the Jin Kingdom completely became a small frontier barbarian tribe and no longer posed a threat.

Wang Xiaolie thought for a while and then said: "Attacking Youzhou is no small matter, so I'll bother Li Kuan to go there. In addition to these three divisions, I will try to send one more division to gather a hundred thousand troops. I think, There should be nothing that a hundred thousand troops can do against the current Jin Army."

Li Yanxian crossed his hands and said: "I will obey the order. In fact, with the current army of [-] to [-] people, the Jin Army has nothing to do."

Wang Xiaolie said: "We should be careful, in case the Jin Army gathers more than 30 troops. For us, now that the territory is large and there are more people who can recruit into the army, we don't have to be so stingy."
